réf. 30514Bradford: J. Lund and London: G. Vickers; London: George Routledge. 1861 and 1852. Two titles bound together in one volume. 'The Unfortunate Genius' is a third edition and 'The Jew of Denmark' is a first English translation first printing. Contemporary half leather binding with gilt rules and gilt titles on a brown morocco label to the spine. A good copy the binding square and firm the leather worn to the spine and extremities the head of the spine and corners with some chipping. The inner front hinge is cracked but holding. There is a contemporary ownership inscription to the front free endpaper a blue pencil X to the text of page 233 occasional foxing throughout and toning to the paperstock of 'The Jew of Denmark' the contents are otherwise clean. 'The Unfortunate Genius' is very scarce. The first title 'The Unfortunate Genius' is an account of the life of a man born to a textile manufacturing community in the early 19th century in Airedale Yorkshire transcribed anonymously by 'a factory girl'. The unnamed man gives a fascinatingly detailed description of his childhood during which he struggles to reconcile a great desire for knowledge of all kinds with the demands of his working class family and situation. He vows to do anything to avoid becoming a weaver and sets out on a journey that sees him endure misfortune and poverty and takes him to New York and back again before he finally forms a successful business as a printer and publisher. He finishes his tale by extolling the virtues of hard work and perseverance and condemns what he describes as the "sin" of "contentment in poverty". It provides a rare and illuminating description of working class life in the early 19th century along with many of the narrator's personal insights on religion social class and philosophy. Despite running to at least three editions the first edition of 2000 copies according to the preface sold out in just three weeks the book remains rare in commerce. The second title is the first English translation of 'The Jew of Denmark' by the Danish writer Meïr Goldschmidt 1819-1887 first published in Danish in 1845 under the title 'En Jöde'. Goldschmidt ran the political periodicals Nästved Ugeblad and Corsaren both of which suffered fines and censorship for criticism of the crown. Over time Goldschmidt dedicated less time to political writing and from 1861 he focused entirely on literature which often centred on religion mysticism and philosophy. 'The Jew of Denmark' is his first novel and the first description of Danish Jewish life from an inside perspective. Further details and images for any of the items listed are available on request.

Contributors: Elena Bargelli Luis Fabrica Kiteri Garcia Hiroki Hatano et al. "The Influence of Human Rights and Basic Rights in Private Law Ius Comparatum: Global Studies in Comparative Law 15."

Text clean. Like New. ISSN: 2214-6881. ISBN: 9783319253350. "This book provides a comparative perspective on one of the most intriguing developments in law: the influence of basic rights and human rights in private law. It analyzes the application of basic rights and human rights which are traditionally understood as public law rights in private law and discusses the related spillover effects and changing perspectives in legal doctrine and practice. It provides examples where basic rights and human rights influence judicial reasoning and lead to changes of legislation in contract law tort law property law family law and copyright law. Providing both context and background analysis for any critical examination of the horizontal effect of fundamental rights in private law the book contributes to the current debate on an important issue that deserves the attention of legal practitioners scholars judges and others involved in the developments in a variety of the world’s jurisdictions.

1901réf. 5025030Montreal: Colin McArthur & Co 1901. First Edition. Soft cover. Good. 1st and only printing. Oblong silver-stamped green cord-tied wraps. 23 printed leaves including plates. 8" x 9 3/4". Illustrated with five beautiful full color plates and six b/w plates. In color: 1 The Imperial Idea expressed with coats of arms of the countries in the British Empire: Great Britain Australia India South Africa New Zealand and Canada. 2 A gorgeous portrait of "Her Most Gracious Majesty the Queen" Victoria. 3 Representation in group form of eight military men representing various fighting men from the empire Queensland Mounted Rifles Northwest Mounted Police etc. 4 The British Lion standing on "Flag of the Empire." 5 Another group of fighting men from the Empire Bengal Lancers New South Wales Engineers etc. Additionally there is one partially colored plate of the publisher's factory in Montreal the "Montreal Wall Paper Factory River Side View."

This booklet is an unabashed celebration of how the colonies of the British Empire came to the support of Great Britain during the 2nd Boer War and indeed while the conflict was still taking place. "When Paul Kruger with his burghers came down from Pretoria . threatening and intending to drive the British into the sea . the spirit of the Lion . broke out strong." The booklet briefly describes the Canadian parliamentary action prints a short numerical list ofl "Military Resources of the Colonies" and promotes the McArthur company in a page titled "Commerce Follows the Flag." There are no records evident in my extensive research that this item has previously come up for auction or booksellers' sale. Original copies reside in six institutions five of them in Canada. The green paper covers are faded at the edges have a bit of light spotting and have a few short edge tears. but no chips. The Canadian shield in silver on the front cover is strong along with the title. The silver imprint of the publisher on the cover is not quite as strong. Certainly a good or better copy. Unabashedly Rare. Colin McArthur & Co unknown
